Comment 10 for bug 69152

Same problem here with SONY VGN-FS415S and Edgy. According to the workaround at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=275564 , after starting X, I have to restart X (by Ctrl-Alt-Backspace) to get the touchpad functionality from Dapper back. This works but is annoying.

What's interesting is that on startup (i.e. before _re_start of X), syndaemon does load but neither a "syndaemon -d -t -k" or a "synclient var=[whatever]" does anything. They do not return error messages though.
